“There’s no way”? Well, obviously, there is always a way do it differently… But nested refs can be useful especially with grouped references [1], when a footnote can refer to a source (or, more generally, refs from one group can refer to another group). Note that there is a workaround for this problem, explained at the enwp help page.
